The aim of this lecture it to help you identify the most promising labor work processes in your organization that can benefit from hands free real time information. The lecture will begin with outlining disciplines to asses your labor workforce and supporting infrastructure to realize the most productivity gains. Then we will review smartglass technology and supporting frameworks to help alignment of roadmap initiatives with technology enhancements. Finally, we will review how to build a business case and achieve executive buy-in. Augmented World Expo (AWE) is back for its seventh year in our largest conference and expo featuring technologies giving us superpowers: augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR) and wearable tech. Join over 4,000 attendees from all over the world including a mix of CEOs, CTOs, designers, developers, creative agencies, futurists, analysts, investors, and top press in a fantastic opportunity to learn, inspire, partner, and experience first hand the most exciting industry of our times.
